⁠docker-whdcli

Docker container for WHD-CLI

To use this container:

1. Create the com.github.nmcspadden.whd-cli.plist file containing authentication for WebHelpDesk:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
    <plist version="1.0">
    <dict>
            <key>apikey</key>
            <string>apikey_generated_from_webhelpdesk</string>
            <key>whd_url</key>
            <string>https://webhelpdesk.domain.org:8443</string>
    </dict>
    </plist>
   

   Copy

You'll need to generate the API key⁠ for authentication. 2. This file can either be mounted using -v or configured during build. A default plist has already been added to the container, so the Dockerfile can easily be forked. 3. Run the container:
docker run -it --name whdcli -v com.github.nmcspadden.whd-cli.plist:/whdcli/com.github.nmcspadden.whd-cli.plist nmcspadden/whdcli /usr/bin/python 4. Inside the container, run Python to use it:

	>>> import whdcli
	>>> whd_prefs = whdcli.WHDPrefs("/whdcli/com.github.nmcspadden.whd-cli.plist")
	>>> w = whdcli.WHD(whd_prefs, None, None, False)
	>>> w.getDetailedAssetByAttribute('serialNumber','<serial number>', True)
	>>> w.getAssetBySerial("<serial number>")`
